Abstract
This paper presents in detail numerical methods and techniques for lightning impulse (LI) modeling
and simulation of power and distribution transformers. The modeling methods are based on equivalent
circuits of transformer winding entities resulting from the initial winding discretization determined by the
required accuracy. The parameters of the equivalent circuit such as resistances and self- and mutual
capacitances and inductances are obtained from field simulations (FEM). The circuit equations of the
transformer’s equivalent circuit written in the state space form yield a large system of differential equations
that is solved in time-domain by using the standard Runge-Kutta numerical integration technique. The
obtained solution represents the voltage distribution over the winding in each moment of the LI-time (50μs).
The results verification by comparison against measurements is presented in detail.
